Emperor Wanli's happiness did not last for long. A few days later, he personally conferred the title of Queen and passed away. Queen Wang was only one year younger than him. She had been a queen for more than four years and could be said to be the most stable and longest queen in the harem. This death made Emperor Wanli, who already had a bad body, sigh. Not long after, his body began to deteriorate.

At this moment, Second Elder Brother Zhu was too far away from the emperor. While worrying about his father's inactivity, he was also thinking about the Lee Family sisters. The big one was virtuous and the small one was quick-witted. He was reluctant to part with both of them.

Zhu Yisu resigned from his position in the Palace and focused on teaching his son to read.

After staying at home, without the teaching allowance, Zhu Yisu's family life had become a lot more prosperous. After all, in the past, the biggest expense of this family wasn't food or clothing, but the socialization of Zhu Yisu.

Second Elder Brother Zhu's performance caused Zhu Yisu to be extremely surprised and he felt extremely regretful in his heart. If he had taught this naughty and playful son of his, he might have even been able to become an Elementary Scholar.

Not to mention his understanding of the fourth book and the fifth scripture, his memorable memory would often allow him to recite the entire book once every 56 times, allowing him to paraphrase its meaning. Compared to his past self, he could not help but sigh.

In less than half a month, Second Elder Brother Zhu had memorized the Four Books and Five Classics at an average speed of two days. Zhu Yisu felt that teaching his son would mislead his son, so he let Second Elder Brother Zhu read by himself while he spent half a day a day teaching the eight pieces of essay and urging Second Elder Brother Zhu to practice.

The news of the fall of the Queen was reported by a yamen official. As a member of the Court, Second Elder Brother Zhu's family was covered with white silk. Even when he was eating, he would only be eating cold food and not hot food, not to mention meat.

On May 18th, after the father and son pair had breakfast, Second Elder Brother Zhu began to write. Zhu Yisu sat by the side, sipping a cup of tea and reading a letter from afar. His face lit up with happiness.

”Father, what is there to be happy about?”

Second Elder Brother Zhu thought that the matter of the imperial duke changing their job had gotten into his head, but he didn't know that this was extremely good news.

Putting the letter away, Zhu Yisu first gave Second Elder Brother Zhu's ”Thousand Character Classic” some pointers, commenting, ”The brush strokes are soft like a student's appearance, soft on the outside but firm on the inside. Rigidity and gentleness is the pursuit of the world for people, from the word know people. Although my son's calligraphy is somewhat lacking in quality and is soft and beautiful without form, it has a kind of golden lance and iron horse on it, which is very rare. However, my son should know that it is easy to break even if you are just right. ”

”Erlang Shen understands. However, the first few words in the book are still reasonable, so when he finished writing, he started writing as he pleases.”

Zhu Yisu smiled and said, ”It's already rare for words to be able to convey meaning. My son's heart is anxious and I understand.” My son does not have to worry about this imperial duke job change, Old Liu Qian Hu must be able to go to the heavens to listen. ”My son needs to be on guard. This word can be written slowly every day. Practicing the word is a way to improve the body and the mind.”

Nodding to show that he remembered, Second Elder Brother Zhu looked down at the letter in Zhu Yisu's hands.

”This is my good friend Sun Boya from Daizhou Town. He has entered Yongheng County in the year 47 of Wan Li, and has been in office for less than a year. He has used his ability to raise his South Zhili and return it to Guo Shangqiu, an adjunct to the De Manor.”

Second Elder Brother Zhu didn't know who Sun Boya was. Boya sounded like a word, and Second Elder Brother Zhu was puzzled by his father's great admiration for Boya Sun.

But Zhu Yisu didn't say anything more, he put the letter away, put his sleeves behind his back, and muttered: ”My son's martial arts practice is also a good thing, I am on good terms with Chief Flag Brother Wu, if His Majesty is generous, you and I are likely to be transferred to the City Guards Institution. Therefore, my father wanted to choose two people from the Kan family's servant to teach my son martial arts. There's no hope for the Imperial Examinations. ”

Second Elder Brother Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this. He cupped his hands and said, ”Thank you, Father.”

Sighing, Zhu Yisu said, ”My son's calligraphy is filled with the aura of a soldier. Perhaps this is a foregone conclusion. After the imperial edict had been passed down, father will go to the Lee Family to propose marriage for Erlang. ”

”Huh?”

Second Elder Brother Zhu was surprised. He thought that he had hidden it extremely well. How could this father, who didn't even step through the doorstep, be able to see through it? Moreover, this father's thoughts were too different from those of the people around him. There were very few cases where he married a woman of his age.

The ancient literati were very clear on the benefits of a loli. Could it be that this father had the same thoughts as him?

Thinking that his son was surprised by the fact that he practiced martial arts, Zhu Yisu turned around and looked at the jujube tree outside the window. He said in a deep voice, ”My father boasts to be smart, but I can't see through the essence of the school. Your father knows that it is already extremely difficult for the disciples of our clan to obtain the title of Elementary Scholar. Military merits are the only way out for us clan members. ”

”Father understands the military?”

”What is the difficulty of military matters? It was nothing more than raising the soldiers' supplies, training the soldiers' discipline, and leading the soldiers to give them distinct rewards and penalties. Wu Yi Qi's book ”New Book on the Effect of Ji” and ”Soldier Practice” should be detailed and detailed. If you read them carefully, you won't be able to become a famous general. As a Commander, you should be more than enough to be a guerrilla. ”

Zhu Yisu was very confident, as he talked about how he straightened his chest and said, ”Grandfather Jian Dianbiao is a general under the control of the Ji Town trained by Eunuch Wu Yi using the military method. His father is currently working in the Liao Town, so if father wishes to train in the army, it would be no problem to ask for a few servant s. ”

Second Elder Brother Zhu did not know that the suppression of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom uprising Zeng Guofan was able to make a start because of Qi Jiguang's two military books. In the beginning, he was defeated repeatedly, but he slowly gathered experience before taking action.

On June 2nd, Second Elder Brother Zhu was picking wheat for Lee Family with a sickle in his hand.

The Little Ice Age began in the middle of the Thousand Calendar. In the cold weather, even Qiongzhou, also known as Hainan Island, had a thick layer of snow, shocking people who hadn't seen snow in the area. This summer, however, was frighteningly hot.
