Chapter 583 Lessons From the Past

After lunch, Rong Yu sent Xuanyuan to pray for him to enter the palace.

It happened that Chu Hongyi was on duty in the afternoon, so the couple entered the Dazheng Palace together. After learning what Her Majesty the Queen meant, Xuanyuan Qi was really stunned for a while: "Be the little prince's teacher?"

"Temporary teacher." Nan Xi said calmly, "It's hard to say what will happen in the future. Hao'er's enlightenment shouldn't be difficult for you. I believe you can do it."

Xuanyuan prayed for silence.

Enlightenment at one year old?

Is this the first time he has heard that someone’s child is in a hurry to become enlightened without even learning how to speak?

Are Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince Regent a little too impatient?

Although the young prince shoulders the important responsibility of the country, there is no need to be so anxious.

Xuanyuan Qi was silent for a moment and said sincerely: "I feel that if I am to educate the young prince now, then what I am doing must not be the responsibility of a teacher, but more precisely, I should be a wet nurse."

In addition to being unable to breastfeed, he felt that the one-year-old child still needed to be held in his arms from time to time. After all, he could not walk or stand completely on his own. He first had to patiently teach him to speak, and he had to always pay attention to whether he was thirsty or hungry. , and whether you want to pee or have a bowel movement...

The more Xuanyuan Qi thought about it, the more he felt that this teacher's responsibility was not easy to fulfill.

After hearing what he said, Nan Xi said casually and said calmly: "What does the regent think?"

Rong Yu was approving the memorial before the case.

Although not very busy today, government affairs were still delayed due to their son's lot drawing banquet. Rong Yu and Nan Xi enjoyed the clouds and rain before starting to work. At this time, they were focusing their energy on government affairs. .

Hearing Nan Xi's words, he said calmly: "Since she is a wet nurse, then one nurse is also breast milk, and two breasts are also breast milk. There is no difference."

Xuanyuan Qi was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The silence lasted for another moment.

He made his last desperate struggle: "Chen's son has always been taken care of by his mother and wet nurse. I have never done any work of nursing a child——"

"You can learn from it if you haven't done it before." Rong Yu's voice couldn't be more calm. "If you don't understand anything, just ask the eldest princess for advice."

Xuanyuan prayed in silence.

The regent was determined to make him the little prince's wet nurse. She would take care of the little prince's food, drink, toilet, and sleep, and teach him how to speak and walk, and learn a few words. When he was older, he would officially start giving lessons in martial arts.

The official title of Crown Prince and Tutor is a good one. It has prestige, is respected by others, and teaches well. When the Crown Prince grows up, he will respect him, be grateful to him, and respect him as a teacher.

But this responsibility also comes with risks.

and……

Xuanyuan Qi felt worried, and unexpectedly thought of those words again.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

Prince Jing's palace is full of honors and favors. His father is currently in charge of the official department and the red-clothed imperial guard. If he becomes the teacher of the young prince again, Prince Jing's palace will really combine governmental power, military power and prestige. I'm afraid there are countless people outside who are jealous.

Of course, it is a trivial matter for others to be jealous, but the saying that prosperity will eventually lead to decline is never wrong.

Even if he is as calm as Xuanyuan Qi, he is still a little scared at this time.

"I am not discussing this matter with you." Rong Yu raised his eyes and looked at Xuanyuan Qi's calm gaze, "You have no room to refuse."

Xuanyuan Qi shuddered and felt the chill from the soles of his feet to the top of his head again.

After a moment of silence, he lifted up his clothes and knelt down: "I obey your order."

"Are you afraid of death?" Rong Yu's voice was cold, "You started to speculate on the holy will in front of His Majesty and this king, which shows that you have been thinking about it in private. Xuanyuan Qi, being too clever is not good for you. I want to kill you. Who doesn’t need to go to such great lengths to praise him?”

Xuanyuan Qi's heart was awe-inspiring, and he lowered his eyebrows and apologized: "I have gone too far, please forgive me for your majesty and the regent."

Nan Xi sat idle in front of the window, holding her chin and smiling: "Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness. Cousin, what's the use of thinking about it so much? Whether it's favor or thunder, since it's been given to you, you have to accept it. , unnecessary fear and worry will not serve any purpose, but will bring you a lot of unnecessary troubles.”

Xuanyuan Qi lowered his eyes: "Your Majesty is right."

"Besides, since I and the regent dare to give you favors, we are not afraid of the overwhelming power and great achievements of Prince Jing's palace." Nan Xi's tone was gentle, as comfortable as a spring breeze, which was completely different from the coldness of the regent, "As long as you have a correct attitude, I will not repay you with any amount of thunder in the future just because I have given you so much grace today.”

Xuanyuan Qi lowered his head in silence. Although he was under great pressure, he still thought to himself that this couple was indeed a perfect match.

One is cold and the other is hot, giving both kindness and power, even a person with a strong mind may not be able to withstand it.

Sure enough, my cousin was no longer so gentle and harmless after taking the throne.

"I understand." His attitude was particularly upright. "I will do my best to teach His Highness the Crown Prince. I will not dare to slack off a little bit. I will definitely live up to the trust of His Majesty and the Regent."

Nan Xi hummed: "That's right."

Xuanyuan Qi was speechless and choked.

Facts have proved that he is not the only one to worry about this matter. After Xuanyuan prayed and returned to the palace, he told his father about this matter. Prince Jing's expression immediately changed: "Prince and Tutor?"

Xuanyuan Qi sighed: "For now, she should be regarded as the prince's nanny."

"Be serious." Prince Jing frowned, "What time has it been? Are you still in the mood to joke?"

Xuanyuan Qi said: "I also wanted to think this was a joke, but it really wasn't."

He obviously wanted to be a free-spirited husband and just watch his daughter-in-law look heroic every day. Why was Her Majesty the Queen taking notice?

These days, having a soft meal has become a luxury.

Prince Jing’s wife frowned: “This should be considered a good thing, why are you two so sad, as if the sky is about to fall?”

“It’s not that the sky is falling, but such a favor from the emperor is probably not a good thing for Prince Jing’s Mansion.” Prince Jing’s face was solemn, “How come the little prince is only one year old? Why is the prince’s tutor appointed? And shouldn’t the tutor be selected from those experienced and prestigious old officials? You can’t even manage your own son well, how can you be a teacher for the prince?”

Xuanyuan Qi looked at his father silently.

"The red-clothed man is in charge of the imperial guards, and you are the prince's teacher. If I continue to hold the real power, this..." Prince Jing sighed, "Even if His Majesty and the Regent trust me, I will not feel at ease."

Xuanyuan Qi was silent for a moment: "Her Majesty said that she would not be afraid of Prince Jing's Mansion because of too much honor and favor."

"What do you know?" Prince Jing glared at him, "This is not a matter of whether Your Majesty is afraid or not, but a tree attracts the wind. In the eyes of the subjects of the imperial capital, Prince Jing's Mansion is now so prominent that it is close to the imperial power. Do you think this is a good thing?"

He was not worried at all that His Majesty and the Regent would be suspicious of anything, but he could not stop the villains from doing evil, and the hidden danger was not at the moment, but in the future.

Who knows when this future will come?

If they get lost in such glory and develop an inflated heart, I am afraid the consequences will be unpredictable.

Prince Wei's Mansion is a lesson learned from the past.

"Then what do you think I should do?"

"What can you do?" Prince Jing sighed, "His Majesty asked you to be the prince's tutor, can you still refuse? At present, it seems that I can only retire after my success."

Xuanyuan Qi was silent.

"But now is not the time. After a while, I will retire due to illness and give up the Ministry of Personnel." Prince Jing pondered for a moment, "I am not afraid of the king's suspicion, but I am afraid that we will cling to power. I am even more afraid that the ministers in the court will unknowingly come to me and form a party. It will be difficult to keep out of trouble at that time."
