Zhang Shuning stayed in Yingtian for eighteen days, and this guy could no longer sit still.

He took a month's leave, and more than two-thirds of it had passed. Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang planned to take the opportunity of canonizing Prince Lu as the crown prince to send the princess away.

Using the majesty of the ceremony, Zhang Ximeng was forced to bow his head.

As a result, let alone Zhang Ximeng, even Zhang Shuning couldn't play. Lao Zhu was very depressed and had to adjust his education and introduce a compulsory education law.

If the ten-year celebration mentioned above was just a pleasure for the emperor and his ministers, then with the implementation of the Education Law, the entire Hongwu rule reached a whole new level.

Starting from Yingtian, newspapers everywhere, 360 lines, and all the people were discussing it.

Some people were surprised, others praised, no one from the court to the local government dared to ignore this decree.

To put it bluntly, this is another major event that affects everyone after equalizing land.

On the streets and in the fields, for a time, everyone knew the word compulsory education.

Lao Zhu also put the core of the ten-year celebration on the New Deal... We can't just have fun ourselves, we must have fun with the people.

What is having fun with the people?

The purpose is to bring benefits to the people, and we must use the ten-year period to launch more new policies and benefit more people.

All the things that have been brewed in the past few years must be brought out as long as they benefit the country and the people!

The atmosphere in the court suddenly changed.

The so-called canonization of the crown prince is definitely not a big deal... Even if a marriage is granted to the prince and princess, it will not cause any commotion.

Even those princesses need to enter the school, study hard, and increase their abilities. Why are they talking about marriage so early when they have nothing to do?

Tacky!

In this atmosphere, Zhang Shuning could naturally return to Jimin Academy as soon as possible.

He severely warned Zhang Chengtian that he must run every day and lose weight quickly. After entering elementary school, he must be in the top three... In short, as my younger brother, he must be better than others and cannot embarrass me.

Of course, as an older brother, I will also set an example for you. At least I will be among the top three in my age!

must!

When Zhang Shuning said this, his heart was pounding.

Because there is a geek named Xu Guan in the same grade. He is like a mountain and it is difficult to surpass him. Apart from him, there is only one quota.

For Zhang Shuning, he needs to improve at least four places.

Not only was he under a lot of pressure, he even took a month off.

From now on, every day is precious.

Zhang Shuning said goodbye to his parents and returned to his residence in Xingzi County with more than a dozen boxes of books.

He arrived at Xingzi County four days in advance. When he came in, he found that his grandfather was playing Go with the girl in the yard, and his grandmother was washing vegetables and preparing to cook. When they saw Zhang Shuning coming, they were all startled.

"You, how can you come back early?"

The old couple almost let it slip.

After all, they all know how popular their grandson is!

Not to mention, no one in Yingtian City, from the royal family to the civil servants and generals, would want to get married to Prince Lu's Mansion! If this kid goes back, he might be targeted by a group of people, and it's almost impossible to come back on time.

But in fact, Zhang Shuning not only came back, but also came back early.

It gave the old couple a big surprise.

"Thanks to my dad! It's all his credit."

Zhang Shuning just said one thing and came up to the two people who were playing chess. His grandfather smiled and said: "Shun Ning, this girl Zhifeng is really amazing. She has only learned to play chess for five days and she is about to surpass me!"

Zhang Shuning was slightly startled, but he was not surprised. After all, he knew how scary this little girl was.

"Xia Zhifeng, thank you for taking care of my two elders for me... I brought back a lot of books."

When the little girl saw him coming back, she was a little surprised, but also a little shy... She really coveted Zhang Shuning's study, and she still came here every day to copy books and help with the cleaning. Gradually, she got along well with the two elders.

Chat with the elderly, play chess with them, and help them relieve their boredom.

Gradually, the second elder also fell in love with this smart girl.

"I am copying books here, and my grandparents pamper me... You just came back today, so I won't disturb you. You can chat!"

The little girl turned to leave, Zhang Shuning was stunned, "Wait a minute!"

Then he reached out and took out a copy of The West Chamber and a copy of The Palace of Immortality... The West Chamber is a work by Wang Shifu, but the Palace of Immortality is a new work. It is not necessarily a new work, because another great opera master Bai Pu has written "The Emperor Minghuang's Autumn Night in the Wutong Rain"

"The work tells the story of Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty who stayed at the Jiangge at night and cried bitterly for Concubine Yang.

Is Bai Pu original?

In fact, it’s not true. At least in Song poetry, there is the word Yulinling... The source is the passage between Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei.

Similarly, versions of Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, and Journey to the West have been circulated for a long time.

Finally, it was compiled into a book, and the final version was cut and edited several times before it finally became a popular version that has been circulated for a long time.

"These two articles are quite beautiful. You can read them first, and then come over when you are free tomorrow. I have many books here!"

Xia Zhifeng reached out and took the two books. He glanced at the boxes with his eyes, his pupils gleaming, "So, are those all?"

Zhang Shuning smiled lightly and said, "There will be more follow-up!"

Xia Zhifeng was dumbfounded. She really couldn't imagine how one person could have so many books.

Now that she has come to Zhang Shuning's place to copy books, the biggest problem is no longer how much she can write, but how many paper, pens, inkstones and paper she can afford!

Who would have thought that I would be troubled by too many books!

Xia Zhifeng felt that she was going crazy... She had to select the important parts from a pile of books and write them down in her notebook. As for the rest, she tried to keep them in her mind.

Even so, she couldn't finish reading Zhang Shuning's book collection.

The result was good, Zhang Shuning did so much again!

His father, a bookseller, is really amazing!

The little girl really couldn't resist the temptation of books, so she had no choice but to agree, and then skipped away with Romance of the West Chamber and the Palace of Immortality in her arms.

After she left, the old couple turned their attention to Zhang Shuning.

"Our eldest young master has not been eaten by anyone, has he?"

Zhang Shuning blushed, "His Majesty actually asked my second brother."

"Chengtian? Could it be that he was chosen?"

"No! He said he wanted to marry seven at once, and His Majesty was so angry that he had nothing to say." Zhang Shuning honestly talked about the affairs in Beijing, and also about the royal princess, and collectively couldn't answer the questions he asked.

The old couple suddenly realized that grandma couldn't help hugging Zhang Shuning and kissed him hard!

"Good boy! The thing about compulsory education that I dare to love is all your fault!"

Zhang Shuning shook his head quickly, "It doesn't count. In fact, father has been prepared for a long time...father is really powerful!" When Zhang Shuning said this, he couldn't help but think of the scene of his father teaching His Majesty.

It’s impossible not to sigh!

That is the Nine-Five Supreme Being, Emperor Hongwu!

Command millions of troops and create a dynasty.

During the prosperous Ming Dynasty, the sun was at its peak.

As a result, such a powerful emperor was treated as a student and taught a lesson by his father... That scene alone was engraved in Zhang Shuning's heart and became an indelible memory.

The old couple had nothing to say, "Our son-in-law is indeed extraordinary! Shu Ning, you must learn from your father in the future!"

Zhang Shuning hesitated, shook his head and said: "I can't learn, my father is too good. I just want to do something small now, print literacy cards, sell them, and get some money. I can pay back the money I owe my father as soon as possible!"

The old couple can't understand their grandson's thinking. That's your father. He gave you money. Why are you so anxious to pay it back?

Father and son also want to settle accounts openly?

Zhang Shuning really thinks so. He wants to do things according to his own ideas, and his father is a ruthless character who can rule over everything. If he wants to get rid of his father's control, he must become financially independent as soon as possible.

If he relies on his father for everything, he will not be able to refuse his father's request one day... What if his father asks him to marry the princess?

No, that's too scary, it makes people's pores stand up just thinking about it.

It must be stopped early!

The next day, while Zhang Shuning was still sorting out books, Xia Zhifeng came. The little girl's eyes were red and she had obviously cried.

"Concubine Yang and Emperor Ming of Tang are so pitiful. Why did the Anshi Rebellion happen?"

Zhang Shuning frowned, "This matter is very complicated, are you sure you want to listen?"

Xia Zhifeng thought for a moment and said, "I read some history books, but I still can't figure it out."

Zhang Shuning said: "Actually, I don't understand either. I just heard my father say that he believed that the people were the foundation. The Tang Dynasty lost the support of the people and destroyed the equalization of land between the government and soldiers... As for more things, I don't know."

Xia Zhifeng frowned, "Minben, equal land! Isn't this what Mr. Zhang said? I have read in your newspaper that Mr. Zhang often writes articles, and he is also mentioned in other people's articles...

By the way, have you met Mr. Zhang when you came to Beijing this time? What does he look like?"
To be continued...
