Chapter 509 Raising a Batch of Little Savages
Ruoyin snuggled on his shoulder.
Then, she held her lips: "Master got angry at me last time, and I still feel wronged in my heart."
Fourth Master: "..."
These days, rather than neglecting her, he was actually angry with himself.
"My Lord knows, so this time you celebrate your birthday, isn't it going to compensate you?"
"..." Ruoyin knew that for an arrogant Lord Baylor like him, when it comes to talking about this, doing things like this is already a gesture of goodwill.
And what she wants is very simple, just an attitude................................... ...................................................
In the early morning of the next day, Ruoyin watched fourth master leave with bewildered eyes.
After fourth master walked away, she turned around, and the infatuation in her eyes was gone, replaced by indifference.
After May, it's June.
June is muggy and hot.
The capital is like a big furnace, and the scorching heat is sweeping across the entire capital.
In the air, even the wind is hot, with waves of heat blowing directly on people's faces.
In this case, people's mood will be more or less affected.
Become irritable, impatient.
Those who are already violent are on the verge of being violent almost all the time.
Especially those who have some power in their hands, when they get angry, they don't take human life seriously.
Prince is such a person.
In the whole Qing Dynasty, except for Kangxi, he ignored the rest of the people.
Even the teachers who teach, he doesn't treat each other as human beings.
On this day, the prince invited all elder brothers and several officials to discuss matters in Yuqing Palace.
"In a few days, the emperor will go on a southern tour, and then he will go to the Mulan paddock to hold an autumn hunt. If you want to go, write a note to the orphan, and the orphan will hand it over to the emperor." With incomparable arrogance.
Hearing this, the rest of the people naturally wanted to follow.
Even if someone doesn't want to go, they will turn a corner and find a way to decline.
Only Xu Yuanmeng, who used to be the prince's teacher, stood up and said, "Prince, I will not follow you to the southern tour because of my old bones. In addition, I have been teaching in the capital all the time. I have never practiced martial arts. It is useless to go to the autumn hunting." .In addition, the parents in the slave family are old and need to be taken care of.”
As soon as the voice finished, a bloodthirsty light flashed in the prince's eyes.
In his opinion, Xu Yuanmeng was the first to speak after he said something.
Not only did he fail to take the lead, but he also rejected the opportunity to go on a southern tour.
It was simply not giving him face, contradicting him.
So, he patted the armrest, and said violently: "Good job, Xu Yuanmeng, don't eat offal from fine wine for toasting."
"Prince, it's really inconvenient to be a slave, there's no other meaning." Xu Yuanmeng replied.
The reason why he didn't want to go on the southern tour was because he heard that there was an autumn hunt.
The most important turning point in his life was because the princes competed in archery.
As a result, Lord Long Live met him and asked him to try it too.
He is a literati, he can't shoot arrows, he can't draw a bow and shoot arrows at all, so he was reprimanded by Long Live God.
But he has the arrogance of a literati, and he justified himself a few words.
In the end, he was beaten up, his home was ransacked, and his parents were sent to Ningguta.
Since then, he has started the nightmare of his life.
In addition, he was unwilling to collude with the officials next to the court.
As a result, if the strength is not good, and if you have been humiliated, you will not be respected.
"Presumptuous!" The crown prince has always been arrogant and domineering, and he can get angry at the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. He thinks it is provoking his majesty as the crown prince.
"Your parents are old, what does it have to do with Gu? Even if they die, they are just two dogs' lives." The crown prince scolded him so much that even Xu Yuanmeng's parents cursed him.
Originally, Xu Yuanmeng was not an ordinary literati. He was a literati with a lot of backbone and refused to submit to power.
Ever since he was beaten by Kangxi in public more than ten years ago, he knew that the taboo of the royal family is absolutely not to contradict the royal family in public, especially the emperor.
And the prince is a prince, and it is the same reason.
So he just swallowed his anger.
Now that he heard the crown prince cursing his parents, he said emotionally: "Prince, my parents have no grievances with you, why should you curse them, it is simply unreasonable!"
"Be reasonable? What you say alone is reason!" The prince said the atmosphere, went down the steps directly, stepped forward and beat and kicked Xu Yuanmeng.
When the officials saw it, they didn't dare to step forward and pull it.
The princes all wished that the prince would get mad and make an appointment, and it would be best to abolish his position as princes.
Only the third and fourth masters stepped forward to hold the prince.
"Prince, Xu Yuanmeng is our teacher after all, you can show him some face, what a big deal." The third master was originally a literati.
He has a special appreciation for people like Xu Yuanmeng.
Fourth master just grabbed the prince vigorously and did not speak.
"Go away!" The prince struggled to break free from the shackles of the fourth master and the third master.
Then, he continued to beat Xu Yuanmeng cursingly.
And dragging Xu Yuanmeng's official uniform, he went outside.
Finally, Xu Yuanmeng was thrown into the lotus pond outside the palace.
He was beating, cursing, and pushing Xu Yuanmeng into the water.
"Gu respects you, Xu Yuanmeng, you are a teacher. If you don't respect you, Xu Yuanmeng, you are a dog slave. If a dog slave dares to show his teeth in front of his master, Gu must beat you to death!"
Xu Yuanmeng was like a clown, his official uniform was already soaked through.
A face covered with wrinkles, flushed and full of humiliation.
The prince picked him up and beat him hard, then threw him into the pond again, and so on.
Xu Yuanmeng struggled a few times in the water like a landlubber at the beginning.
In the end, he simply stopped "thumping" in the water and decided to drown himself.
Seeing this, the prince in a yellow brocade robe stopped beating.
There was a bloodthirsty sneer at the corner of his mouth, and he said in disgust: "If you want to die, I will make you want to die! Aren't you studying at the Pope's heirs in Maoqin Hall, and I will let you be tortured there!"
As he spoke, the crown prince stood in front of the pond with his hands behind his back, and commanded condescendingly: "Come here! Bring this old thing, Xu Yuanmeng, to the Maoqin Hall, and you will be charged thirty!"
"Prince, Xu Yuanmeng is over half a hundred years old, I'm afraid he can't stand thirty years old." The third master really couldn't bear it.
Although they have grown up now and have a mansion.
But Xu Yuanmeng, no matter what, taught them a few princes.
The prince raised his arrogant and cold-blooded chin slightly, and walked towards the Maoqin Hall.
His mouth was even more frantic: "Whoever is left to die alone will die. Now that he is alone, Xu Yuanmeng's life is considered good. It's not the turn of others to intervene."
On the handsome face of the crown prince, there is the arrogance of being a crown prince.
It seems that except for Kangxi, others are like ants in his eyes.
Hearing this, the third master opened his mouth, wanting to say something else.
The fourth master on the side tugged at the corner of his clothes, and finally swallowed his words.
The two brothers looked at each other knowingly, and followed the prince's pace.
A moment later, Xu Yuanmeng, who was over half a century old, was beaten by a group of burly guards in turn.
Even young people can't stand thirty big boards.
Not to mention such an old bone as Xu Yuanmeng, the clothes behind him have long been bloody and torn.
From the beginning of his loudly forgiving, now he can only moan feebly.
The official hat had fallen off a long time ago, and the face was dirty, full of mud from the pond.
From the bloodless mouth, there was a faint mosquito-like voice: "Oh, oh..."
A great Confucian official in the current dynasty, yesterday he was still teaching Confucian classics to the princes, teaching friendship and benevolence, teaching respecting teachers and respecting elders, and being friendly to relatives and friends.
Today, he was bullied like this in front of officials, princes, and students.
The physical and psychological humiliation made him feel ashamed.
How to gain a foothold in the court in the future, and how to establish a teacher's prestige in front of the students.
He had thought that the princes had all grown up.
Those young heirs should be easier to teach.
It seems... these savages grow up and will eventually raise a group of little savages.
At this time, on the steps in front of the Maoqin Hall, all the princes and grandsons of the junior generation stood.
They saw the prince's uncle beating the teacher like this.
Some are still covering their mouths and giggling, thinking that the old and dogmatic gentlemen are finally cleaned up, so they are very happy.
Of course, some people think that this is too much and disrespects the teacher.
And Hongyi of the fourth master's family is such a person.
The little boy stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, watching this scene, with his hands behind his back, forming small fists.
That afternoon, after school, Hongyi went to the main courtyard as usual to greet Ruoyin.
Ruoyin smiled and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
He also ordered Qiaofeng: "Go, ask the dining room to bring the iced milk pudding."
Hongyi lowered his head, and let Ruoyin wipe his sweat obediently.
He said with some unhappiness on his mouth: "Emiang, today the prince and uncle beat up the old man in front of everyone. I saw that the old man was dripping with blood. After he was lifted up, the place he passed was everywhere It's blood, and even the pond has a layer of red."
Hearing this, Ruoyin paused for wiping his sweaty hands.
What the rules are in the front yard, she doesn't know.
But on weekdays, when she punished the slaves in the main courtyard, she never punished them in front of the children.
The purpose is to prevent the children from imitating the example and stimulate the immature hearts of the children.
Isn't Kangxi a good example, when the princes were studying, they beat the teacher more than once in front of the princes.
During that period, it was Xu Yuanmeng who was the one who was most beaten.
After the fight, you can't recover from your injuries, you have to teach with your injuries.
The result is better now, and the princes have grown up.
Either the heart is like a snake or a scorpion, or it is vicious and ruthless, or it is unpredictable.
For the sake of imperial power, I don't know how many tricks of brother-in-law have been played in private.
That prince is the overlord of the Forbidden City, let alone beating the teacher.
Hearing that any woman in the backyard was disobedient, he would scratch his ears when he went up.
