Xiao Cunyu was a little surprised.
The last time I saw this old man, he was still a hermit and had no interest in a court career. I didn't expect that he would be involved with the prince now.
"Do you really want to stay in the capital? This is not a good place." Xiao Cunyu was a little puzzled.
The prince is in the vortex. If Mr. Lin becomes the prince's teacher, then the prince's status in the eyes of the world's literati will definitely rise a lot!
Moreover, Lord Lin is a man of real talent. Even if he only teaches the prince one tenth of his talent, it will still make the prince's talent and ability far surpass those of other princes.
Once this news gets out, the prince will never have a peaceful life again.
"I have been thinking about this matter for four or five years and have had the intention for a long time. However, I have repeatedly declined because I thought it was too troublesome to go to the capital. But now I see that Your Highness is firstly a person of dignified character, secondly he has suffered for the country, and thirdly he is very sincere. After thinking about it, I feel that there is no reason to refuse Your Highness. Over the years, I have been to the places I should go, and I have seen and tasted all the feng shui and delicacies in the world. Even if I die in the capital now, it is not a pity." Lord Lin said very kindly.
He could continue to live a carefree life at his old age, but what's the point if there's no one to inherit his character, elegance and skills?
There are countless people in the world who can be his disciples.
However, among all of them, only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can turn the unfulfilled and impossible ambitions and strategies of this life into reality.
"Since it is your decision, I will of course support it. Your Highness is indeed a generous and straightforward person. Having such a disciple will give you both face and happiness, which is very good." Xiao Cunyu did not say much.
"Have you also met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Mr. Lin's old face showed some interest.
"We've only met a few times, we're not familiar at all." Xiao Cunyu said immediately.
Lin Gong glanced at him, understood her temper, and said nothing more.
He wanted to take Xiao Cunyu as his apprentice because he liked her unrestrained and freedom-loving nature. She was arrogant and unrestrained, and looked down on others. She seemed to be unrestrained, but she had her own rules in her heart. She was more elegant than he was when he was young.
Unfortunately, it was her personality that prevented the two of them from having any chance of becoming master and disciple.
"There are many academies in the world. Which one do you want to go to, silly boy?" Mr. Lin turned his head and looked at Zhou Jingmao.
Zhou Jingmao's mouth was dry, and he subconsciously wanted to say that he didn't want to go to any of them...
But before he could open his mouth, Xiao Cunyu patted his shoulder.
"As for him...what do you think? My brother is good in every way. He has a sincere heart and is generous. However, he is a little extravagant and gullible. His character has some flaws, but his merits outweigh his flaws. He has a sincere heart..." Xiao Cunyu almost said directly that Zhou Jingmao had no merits at all except that he was stupid and gullible.
Mr. Lin is not stupid. If this silly boy had any strengths in reading and painting, Xiao Cunyu would not have used those useless words to fool him.
"A person of this character needs a rigorous academy." Mr. Lin thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go to the capital."
Xiao Cunyu nodded immediately: "Your decision is definitely correct. I will pass this message to Lord Zhou after I return."
“…” Zhou Jingmao opened his mouth.
Wanjun Academy?
Why hasn't he heard of it?
He knew that the top academy in the capital was Luoxing Academy, followed by Qingshan Academy and Yuansheng Academy...
There are many academies in the world, but where did this Wanjun Academy come from?
