Royal Road - Chapter 229

[Chapter 228 | City]

As soon as it was dawn, Liang Rong woke up from his sleep.

It was already winter, and it was always difficult to get up in the morning, but today Liang Rong did not stay in bed, nor did he ask the maid to urge him.

“Little Langjun!” the waiting maid hurriedly shouted, “Tianhan, put on your clothes first!”

Liang Rong turned a deaf ear, as if he was worried, and quickly opened the wooden box on the case.

When he saw the contents of the box clearly, his expression was obviously relieved, and he showed a silly smile.

“Xiao Langjun, the slaves and servants are watching the things sent by the emperor. How can something go wrong? Come on, get dressed first.” Liang Rong is small, but his posture is very upright, even the personal maid can hardly see him like this. With a childish appearance, he couldn’t help but smile.

Liang Rong blushed and walked back embarrassedly, letting the maid help him get dressed and washed.

It’s not that he didn’t know that the things that my father sent must be carefully received.

It’s just that this gift was delivered by Kuaima last night. I woke up early this morning and was confused. I was afraid that it was just a dream last night. How could Liang Rong not be in a hurry?

Seeing that things are still there now, that little anxiety is gone.

Get dressed and brush your teeth.

After combing her hair, the maid kept moving her hands, deftly gathered up the soft black hair, used a comb to put two small buns on Liang Rong’s head, smiled and said to him: “Today’s birthday, this servant will give Xiao Lang Jun combed the bun. Does Xiao Lang like it?”

Looking at the two round little buns in the bronze mirror, Liang Rong’s eyes flashed and he nodded vigorously.

Today he turns eight years old, and when he reaches the age of the chief horn, of course he should wear a bun.

Although he was not used to it, Liang Rong still felt that after combing the bun, he felt like he had grown up.

After taking a few more glances at the round bun in the mirror, Liang Rong came to the food table.

The morning food on the case is also different from the past, with a few more soft and hot sugar packets.

Liang Rong was served by the old people of Liang’s house, and he was very aware of the habits of Xiao Langjun’s birthday.

This year, Lord Lang became the prefect and went to Jinyang, leaving only Xiao Langjun in the party.

They didn’t dare to neglect, they must make Xiao Lang Jun happy.

Sure enough, seeing those sugar packets, Liang Rong’s face that was carved and carved into jade immediately showed a smile.

Sitting down obediently in front of the food table, he picked up a sugar packet and ate it carefully.

Caramel is expensive, so how can I make pasta in such a rough way on weekdays, but Liang Rong is very happy to eat it.

It seems that the sweet candy core is so melted in the bottom of my heart.

After finishing the meal at twice the usual speed, Liang Rong picked up the wooden box on the table and walked towards the backyard.

Now that the Bookstore has moved out of the Prefect’s Mansion, most of the backyard has become the site of the Chongwen Museum.

He also comes here every day to listen to lectures.

Those who can enroll here are not the sons and daughters of the generals and officials of the Liang residence who are excellent in character and study, or the sons of the Shangdang officials.

No matter what kind of people, they should try their best to curry favor with Liang Rongcai.

However, the atmosphere in the Chongwen Academy is very good, and there is no perfunctory trend in Luoyang Guozi Academy. Liang Rong is like an ordinary student in the Academy, studying diligently, taking exams seriously, and earning honors by his own skills.

But today, after all, he was still a little more happy, and he arrived at the school early to look for the teacher.

Cui Ji was his mentor, but now he has turned into Lu Ling, in charge of Shangdang County, and is really busy with official business.

Then he asked Fan Long, the prefectural school sacrificial wine, to give Liang Rong some pointers.

Fan Longbo has access to scriptures and can read everything, and it can be said that he is overqualified to teach a child with a yellow mouth.

Even so, he had no grudges and taught with all his heart.

He would come to the academy every two days and make a special trip to explain Liang Rong’s doubts.

It is this Mr. Fan that Liang Rong wants to ask for advice today.

Sitting down in the study, Liang Rong didn’t ask the maid to help, and placed the wooden box on the table by himself.

Carefully opened the lid and took out the contents.

It was a book, bound according to Liang’s rules, but the ink characters on it were not printed, but handwritten.

This is the birthday gift that my father gave me, a copy of the scriptures by myself.

Father is so busy, he still doesn’t forget his academic birthday, how can he not make Liang Rong excited?

It’s just that Liang Rong has not studied this scripture, nor has it commented on it.

The little guy came to the study early and wanted to invite the head teacher.

This book was given to him by his grandfather, so he must learn it seriously.

When he saw his grandfather back, he had to show it well to prove that he had been studying hard and never wasted.

The little hand touched and touched the scriptures, and Liang Rong finally settled down and began to review the previous lessons.

Just after reading for a quarter of an hour, there were footsteps outside the door.

Liang Rong hurriedly stopped and respectfully got up to greet him.

Entering the room, seeing Liang Rong at a glance, Fan Long said in amazement, “Isn’t today Rong’s birthday? But come later.”

Children always take birthdays very seriously. Fan Long specially gave them a fake. I thought Liang Rong would take a break for half a day.

This is what Mr. Fan ordered before, but he was so excited that he forgot.

Liang Rong blushed: “The student got a book and wanted to ask Mr. for advice. I forgot what I told you before…”

Fan Long couldn’t help but smile when he saw the little guy’s shy appearance.

Being eager to learn is a kind of virtue. As a teacher, how can you hate it?

Sitting down after the book desk, Fan Long said, “What book is it? Let me see it.”

Liang Rong quickly picked up the book and presented it in front of the teacher.

It turned out to be this “Mencius”?

Seeing the title of the book, Fan Longmeifeng was a pick.

In the Han Dynasty, there was also a biography doctor of “Mencius”, but it was later abolished.

“Mencius” is classified in “Yiwenzhi”, it is only a sub-book, and it is not a book that ordinary children should read.

However, at a second glance, he recognized the words written in the book.

That is Liang Shijun’s handwriting!

Reaching out to open the pages of the book, Fan Long asked lightly, “Is this book given to you by the envoy?”

Liang Rong nodded proudly: “It’s a birthday gift from my father.”

Sending “Mencius” as a gift?

This is to make Liang Rong familiar with “Mencius”?

Fan Long had no knowledge of books, and he knew the meaning of Mencius.

Meng Ke was born in troubled times, but he upheld the four virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom.

Such a view is out of place in today’s world.

There are many clansmen, and they are about to overwhelm the imperial power. Who will take the “people” in their eyes?

No one believes in the saying that “if you abuse the people even more, you will kill the country with your own body”.

Those Zhumen royal families can’t wait to close the door, knock on the bones and suck the marrow, and live their own happy days!

However, looking at the situation in the world today, I have to say that what Meng Ke said is quite reasonable.

It’s just that the doctrine of benevolent government and kingship is not just something that the courtiers need to learn.

Fan Long remembered the letter sent by Duan Qin before.

Although not expressly stated, Duan Qin already has the heart to seek the country.

In his eyes, Liang Zixi is a once-in-a-lifetime wise man who might end this troubled world.

So what about in your own eyes?

He was in Shangdang County School, a new school in charge of this very different world school, what did he see?

Isn’t it something that you can’t ask for and dream about?

For him, a Confucian of a poor family, there is no better master than Liang Zixi!

And not long after he set his mind on it, such a book came to him.

Does the use of this book to teach the only son also means that the monarch truly recognizes the way forward and should train Liang Rong as the prince?

In fact, Fan Long has always known that Liang Rong has a firm mind and a good character, and will be a great asset.

But before, he only taught the child as a prince, not a monarch.

Perhaps this “Mencius” is the difference between the two.

A founding king who ended troubled times with “benevolence”.

Thoughts swirled in his head, but Fan Long didn’t show the slightest clue on his face. He just said: “This book is about benevolence. Only by putting the people first can we win the support of the people.”

Liang Rong seemed to understand but not understand.

Nodding: “My father also taught me to pay attention to the herdsmen, so as to be worthy of their offerings and gifts.” That’s

true!

Fan Long’s overly serious face finally showed a shallow smile: “What Rong said is not bad. Let’s talk about Mencius today.”

In addition to “Mencius”, he still has a lot to teach something.

In the Chongwen Hall, one old and one young are eager to learn, but in the government office in front, Cui Ji’s face is not very good-looking.

Liu Yuan had just proclaimed himself emperor in Pingyang, and Sima Yue, who had been entrenched in Luoyang City, went to Jingzhou a few days ago.

The battle between the false emperors has been going on for more than half a year, and half of the country is scorched.

However, the general Gou Xi recently recaptured Xiangyang and forced the troops of the King of Chengdu to retreat into Jiangxia.

Wang Mi and the others scattered and fled again, leaving the King of Chengdu once again alone.

Destroying this chaotic army was imminent, and Sima Yue finally couldn’t sit still and had to lead his troops on an expedition in person.

Such a great victory must be presided over by him!

This is also the best way to consolidate his status.

However, the little emperor was about to be left in Sizhou, facing the Xiongnu and Han kingdoms separated by a river.

It’s bound to make people worry a little bit.

However, in order to protect Luoyang, Sima Yue also spent a lot of thought, not only rebuilding the camp in Hongnong, but also strengthening the defenses of cities along the Yellow River.

An order was also sent, ordering him to stick to the party.

It is absolutely impossible for Huma to cross the Xingdao from Shangdang and approach Luoyang.

As long as the rebel army of the King of Chengdu is eliminated, he will return to the division and fight against the Huns in person.

That sounds promising.

But Cui Ji knew that this was not as simple as he thought.

When the Huns wanted to attack Luoyang, they either crossed the Yellow River or took the Xingdao Road.

But now Shangdang is the granary of Bingzhou. If there is a melee here, the whole Bingzhou will starve.

Other counties and states have just been pacified, and it is difficult to maintain self-sufficiency. How can there be any spare capacity to accommodate refugees?

Jinyang must be notified as soon as possible.

I don’t know if the envoy can dig some grain and grass from Luoyang.

Cui Ji sighed softly and started writing a letter.

Two days later, the letter fell on Liang Feng’s desk.
