C12 (2/2)

At the same time, he was glad that the most troublesome part of the Four Books and Five Classics was its annotation. Fortunately, he didn't need to copy it.

The father and son duo did not know that there were actually two secret service of the Ming Dynasty s hidden in this small courtyard. One was hidden outside the window of the main house, and the other was hidden on a side beam.

After reading the ”Analects” and eating three pastries, Zhao Qi finally drove the ox-cart back after drinking two bowls of tea. Second Elder Brother Zhu Feng rushed out and picked up two stacks of bamboo paper wrapped in straw paper.

Zhao Qi watched Second Elder Brother Zhu tear up a piece of straw paper as he walked. Seeing Zhu Yisu leaving the main house in his brand-new official robe, he quickly went up to him and asked, ”Master, are you going out?”

”Mm, take all the papers in the car to Erlang'er, and prepare a hundred silver as a greeting, and follow this old man to visit the secret service of the Ming Dynasty flag.” If you have to go in the future, it would be good to bring a few servant guards. ”

”Master is right, the Xinping Fort is right at the foot of the Great Wall.”

Seeing Zhao Qi's face filled with fear, Zhu Yisu laughed and said, ”You old servant, your courage is not as strong as Erlang.”

”Second brother is of First Emperor Gao's bloodline, so he naturally doesn't fear soldiers. Besides, how can this old servant compare to second brother? ”

The two of them chatted for a while, got ready to pay their respects, and drove the ox-cart away.

The secret service of the Ming Dynasty who was hiding at the back wall of the main house took out a brush with a pen cap, dipped it in saliva and wrote some words on the slip of paper. Then, he took out a pigeon from his embrace, tied it up, and released it.

His stature was majestic, and he was none other than the small flag under Jian Dianbiao's banner, Hee Chong.

After letting out the carrier pigeons, Liu Tie, who was dressed like a farmer in short clothes, jumped over the wall and found a cool and secluded place to rest. He no longer had much interest in this surveillance mission. The Wu father and son duo were both talented, compassionate, and compassionate, and Second Elder Brother Zhu was a naive child. So no matter how hard they tried, there wouldn't be any meaningful information for them.

What the emperor was most worried about was the clan's rebellion. With Zhu Yisu and his son's family connections, no one would believe him even if he wanted to rebel. The secret service of the Ming Dynasty up and down naturally didn't have enough motivation. What they liked was a big fish.

In the side room, Second Elder Brother Zhu rewrote the ink and after covering the bamboo paper with bamboo paper, he wrote a few words on the toilet paper to find his touch and then started to copy the 'Analects'.

What was worse was that the bamboo paper was completely blank. There wasn't even a single horizontal line on it. How would he know that Zhu Yisu was purposely trying to trick him. If there was no such bet, Zhu Yisu would arrange for Zhao Qi to print crosswise lines on the bamboo paper to make it easier to write.

Without the horizontal and vertical correction, Second Elder Brother Zhu could only stop writing. If he could even see it for himself, how could he possibly be willing to give it to someone else?

He placed two rows of equidistant points on the yellow wooden table, blew them dry, and then placed the bamboo paper on top of it. This way, he would have the coordinates of the left and right interlaced lines, which was why he began to write rapidly.

”Classic 1, Learning from time to time …”

In one breath, he copied 5 pages. Second Elder Brother Zhu blinked his dry eyes, let out a long breath and rubbed his sore wrist. 4 The book 'Analects of Confucius' had a total of 10 thousand words, a page only had 3 words on average. Only then could 1/9 of the book be completed. One still had to work hard.

Second Elder Brother Zhu took off his robe and wore a white cotton undergarment. Before March, he wore an undergarment … As he continued to write, the sound of Sasha's pen and paper rubbing against each other echoed through the room.

As if being able to hypnotize, the youngster on the beam couldn't help but cover his mouth and sob. After fixing himself up properly, he rested his arm against the pillow and simply fell asleep.

After finishing the two essays from 'Analects', he was hungry.

Wiping the sweat off his face, Second Elder Brother Zhu held the dessert in one hand and the teapot in the other. He hurriedly stuffed his stomach and washed his face. Then, he started to copy the ”Moderation” manual, which had 2000 words more than the ”Analects”.

By the time he finished copying this book and finished two of the four books, it was already noon. He then continued to eat some snacks. Second Elder Brother Zhu put away the book and tore open another stack of bamboo paper to lay down his quill. This was already his second quill.

In the evening, Zhu Yisu's master and servant successfully completed their task. Zhu Yisu endured his curiosity and did not disturb his son. He told Zhao Qi, ”Go to the butcher's house and bring back 5 catties of meat. In the evening, cook some meat porridge for Erlang. More... ”That's all. Go on.”

Zhu Yisu had even planned to let Zhao Qi run along the way to Lee Family to prescribe two sets of cultivation methods to recuperate his mind, so he decided to give up.

After lighting two oil lamps, Second Elder Brother Zhu started to transcribe 5 of the four books and five scriptures. According to the order, the first one to be copied was the 'Book of Songs'.

After copying the Book of Songs, Second Elder Brother Zhu intended to copy some of the Book of Changes and then take a break. He had tea and snacks when he was hungry, and this made the youngster on the beam in the room suffer. It was originally a job that could be rotated, so he didn't bring any rations with him. However, Second Elder Brother Zhu had to use a chamber pot twice during the entire period of time, so he didn't go out even once.

Since he didn't have the chance to slip out, this young man's secret service of the Ming Dynasty had made Second Elder Brother Zhu hate him to death. His stomach rumbled, and after sleeping for an entire day, this young man was unable to sleep, so he could only endure.

Losing the quill, Second Elder Brother Zhu blew out a lamp, and walked around in a drunken stupor. His legs felt weak, and his right hand felt sore. Even his small waist was almost broken. Coupled with his spirit and fatigue, it made Second Elder Brother Zhu feel really uncomfortable.

He jumped up and wrapped the five books that he had copied into a big piece of straw paper. Then, he carried Second Elder Brother Zhu to the main room.

The teenager landed lightly on the floor and was about to follow him out when he saw Zhao Qi sitting on the opposite side of the stairs, sharpening something. The teenager retreated with a sad face and found that he was too hungry to climb up the beams, so he could only hide in a corner where there was a chamber pot, causing the teenager's face to turn green.
